Garden City law firm, Rosenberg & Fortuna LLP, recently got together with a
local charity to recycle some of its old technology equipment to benefit an area
Boys and Girls Club. According to Paul Shatz, spokesman for Rosenberg &
Fortuna, “it seemed a shame to just dispose of old equipment which still had a
useful life left for someone else. We upgraded our technology, but our old
technology was still viable for someone else.” At that point Shatz contacted
non-for-profit
www.comp4kids.org for advice on recycling options.

Jon Zimmerman, founder of the local non-for-profit
company, “We explained to Paul that sometimes refurbishment is a better way to
go then recycling. We told Paul that the Hicksville Boys and Girls Club needed
computers exactly like the one that he no longer needed.” At that point the
comp4kids arranged to have the ‘old’ computers at Paul’s firm wiped clean of
their personal information, the computers we picked up, and then delivered to
their home at the Hicksville Boys and Girls Club. According to Tom Bruno
executive director of the club, “We are thrilled to have generous benefactor
like Rosenberg&Fortuna” helping us help kids.

"Local corporations and individuals have been
incredibly generous in donating computers that they were no longer using, and
through our efforts, we are refurbishing them for those that are without
computers," said Zimmerman. "I like to thank all those generous donors of
computers and would like to encourage volunteers from the community to
assist with this worthwhile program." If you would like to make a donation,
volunteer, know of an eligible recipient, or if your company is interested in
receiving freedata
destruction with its donation, please contactwww.comp4kids.orgor
